WHY SHOULD CHILDREN LEARN YOGA??


WHY SHOULD CHILDREN LEARN YOGA??
“Yoga for Children is holistic and fun, with the aim of increasing the skills of focus, balance, mind full reflection, and mind/body awareness. The practice of simple postures, breathing exercises and mindfulness meditation techniques in a non competitive, nurturing environment instills confidence, self-regulation, and self-efficacy at the same time developing higher values like gratitude and optimism.” 

Children who learn yoga early on are physically healthier and mentally better adjusted. Ideally, when children learn at a young age the benefit of a committed practice, it ripples out into their everyday life activities, relationships, and responsibilities.

The benefits of numerous.. Yoga ...
Increases Neuro-Muscular coordination, 
Improves Cardio -Pulmonary fitness, 
Enhances Neuro- Cognitive functions, 
Refines Socio- Emotional behaviour, 
Strengthens Immuno- endocrine system
Expands imagination and creativity
Improves balance and postural deformities
Develops discipline and self-control
Provides opportunities for reflection, patience and insight, 
Reduces impulsive and reactive nature & promotes clam and relaxed mind.

Yoga trains to clear the mind and shut out distractions. Meditation is a technique used in some yoga styles to teach deep concentration. Practicing this skill set is an asset for students who are required to read, write, perform exams and complete practicums. 
Yoga for children should be practiced in moderation and with safety precautions; it should be more fun, more interesting, more lively and less competitive.

Yoga is not a destination; rather it is a journey of a lifetime, which takes discipline. 
of course in ancient days yoga was mainly taught to children in Gurukuls!
agree??
please share it or like it .. help us spread the awareness of yoga for children.

Free SOHAM KRIYA DHYANA - Transcending the Pancha Koshas.. Meditation as the gateway to the Self!


SOHAM KRIYA DHYANA


We all know that we are not just our bodies(the actions), we have a mind too, which is always running non stop! That is our likes and dislikes(the conditioned lower mind). 
Above that we have the intellect, the thinking part (or the analytic higher mind) constantly telling us what is right and wrong, which is sometimes guiding and sometimes conflicting with our mind. 
But where are these so called body, mind and intellect, when we are in deep sleep ? YES!! we are not aware of our 'body', nor aware of our  feelings or thoughts when we are in deep sleep.. then who are we in our deep sleep? 
We are resting in our Blissful sheath .. but we are not aware of it.. so we come out of the deep sleep again with the same forgetfulness and ignorance that 'we are just this body mind and intellect'! 

Inline image 2


That is why everyone is so fond of sleep.. because in sleep we are nothing, no mind no body, our so called identities the EGO  goes into the seed state in deep sleep. But as soon as we wake up, the EGO takes its full control of the body, mind and intellect and we are bombarded with our memories and desires and we jump into actions to fulfill them or express them. 
In due course we go on accumulating impressions and more and more desires and fears.. then where is the end!..!
So how to break this viscous cycle of ego, desire, fear and action how to consciously get established in our blissful state.. where there no thoughts and feelings, no desires and fears that bother us.. 
How do we realize our true nature that is free from all ego conditioning and impressions?
How to transcend these Pancha Koshas, the layers of existence... like a onion peels, covering our Inner Self? 
How to get established in our True nature.. that is peace and bliss?

Meditation is the only way out.. !!
Meditation ..
-grounds the body, slows down the mind
-purifies the mind and the heart
-clears the energy & emotional blocks
-sharpens the intellect and discrimination power

What is Soham Kriya Dhyana??
Soham Kriya Dhyana is a systematic training of establishing our mind(awareness) in that blissful state, transcending the lower Koshas, the Annamaya, Pranamaya Manomaya and Vijnanamaya and get establish in Anandamaya kosha.


SOHAM KRIYA DHYANA
Meditation as the gateway to Blissful Self - All realized souls teach the same truth!

1.      SOHAM NAMANA                         - Prayer as a gateway to Blissful Self
2.      SOHAM SHAKTI SANCHALANA  - Energy as the gateway to the Blissful Self
3.      SOHAM NADA DHYANA              - Sound as the gateway to Blissful Self
4.      SOHAM KAYANUSANDHANA     - Body as the gateway to Blissful Self
5.      SOHAM PRANAVA JAPA              - AUM as the gateway to Blissful Self
6.      SOHAM PRANAVA DHYANA       - OM as the gateway to Blissful Self
7.      SOHAM JYOTIR DHYANA            - Light as the gateway to Blissful Self
8.      SOHAM CHAKRA DHYANA         - Energy as the gateway to Blissful Self
9.      SOHAM PRANAYAMA                  - Breath as the gateway to Blissful Self
10.   SOHAM NADI SHUDDI KRIYA     - Prana as the gateway to Blissful Self
11.   SOHAM SAMADHI                         - Silence as the gateway to Blissful Self

​In Soham Kriya Dhyana we take our awareness stage by stage  transcending the Koshas one by one and establish our self in Anandamaya Kosha, the Blissful self . And then our true Self will reveal itself. It needs regular practice and commitment.. we are looking forward for serious seekers.. 
It is a series of mindfulness meditation practices done using nada bindu and kala i,e. light sound and energy.

Atma, the soul is nada bindu kalathitha!
The Self is beyond light, sound and energy!

This Authentic and scientific technique was taught to me and I was initiated, graced, trained and  authorized in Guru Parampara by my Guruji... 'Sadguru Narasimha Prabhuji' to teach others.

​we run
  regular meditation courses and yoga classes​

REVERSE YOUR AGE - Yoga for Ageless Body!! (an article by Yogacharini Komal)

REVERSE YOUR AGE 


Live healthier, younger & longer with strength & vitality
- Yoga for Ageless Body!!

My body is aging!!! Can I do something about this? Can I slow down this?

Has such questions ever popped up in your mind? 
Yes!! We all know that as we grow in age, body starts deteriorating, metabolism slows down, fat starts accumulating, tiredness sets in, issues like diabetes, blood pressure, cholesterol, insomnia, respiratory disorders, weight gain, constipation, incontinence, cancer, arthritis, back pain, shoulder pain(the list goes on..) sets in. And we depend on pills and powders for keep the body going. Result reduced immunity, healing and nervous coordination.

Can Yoga help in this regard? 
Certainly 100% But how??
Several yogis in the past and present have lived longer and healthier with yoga practices.
Simple Yoga stretches and breathing practices combined with Mudras, Bandhas, Relaxation and Mindfulness Meditative practices (that is Integrated Yoga) help in combating all the aging physical and mental health issues big and small.




Yoga has many, preventive, curative, energizing, relaxing and rejuvenating effect on our body, brain and mind. Everyone agrees with this! (Especially who have done yoga). 
The benefits of Yoga for the body, brain and mind are endless ... mainly it...
  • Tones the skin
  • Strengthens the muscles
  • Increases the elasticity of the spine
  • Lubricates the joints
  • Messages the internal organs
  • Balances glandular functions
  • Corrects hormonal imbalances
  • Improves nervous coordination
  • Enhances natural healing
  • Increases immunity
  • Strengthens brain power
  • Releases energy blocks
  • Calms the crazy mind
  • Balances left and right brain functioning
  • Corrects the postural deformities
  • Reduces catabolism and improves metabolism
  • Increase antioxidants and serotonin levels

Traditional Surya Namaskar - Sun Salutation

Surya Namaskar is the best Vinyasa Flow that anyone can practice daily. Many variations are available, depending on your age, practice level and flexibility; one can start with simple version and gradually challenge oneself. Surya Namaskar builds strength, brings stability, increases flexibility, and very good for anti-aging as it works on our seven energy centers (Chakras).

Nadi Shuddii Pranayama - Alternate Nostril Breathing
Doing some warm-ups & joint mobilization before Surya Namaskar is good as it helps in better stretching, also when followed by simple breathing practices like Kapalabhati Bhastrika Nadi Shuddi Pranayama, Surya Bedana Pranayama, Surya Mudra ...etc help in detoxification and energization of the body. This helps in balancing the Prana flow in the Ida & Pingala Nadi, thus rejuvenating the body. Also let us not forget healthy yogic diet and yogic lifestyle!


All health practitioners today recommend that everyone interested in healthy aging should add a yoga practice to their life! So still thinking... just breathe and get started. The only limitation is in our mind... possibilities are always infinite!!

Yoga is an intelligent investment of time and energy towards a healthy an happier life.

In short the equation of reversing the age is
Yoga = Fit Body = Active Mind = Glowing Skin = Healthier & Younger look!

YOGA FOR NATURALLY GLOWING YOUNG SKIN!!


YOGA FOR NATURALLY GLOWING YOUNG SKIN!!


 Skin problems like dryness, red patches, fine lines, crows feet, acne, pimples, itches, dark patches, skin eruptions, premature wrinkles, sagging, decolouring, double chin, scaling.. all occur mainly due to our hormonal imbalances which results due lifestyle, stress, wrong food habits, metabolic disorders like constipation, indigestion, sleep issues, pitta doshas(heat), and aging.
All natural young & healthy skin can be yours... just by the four letter word YOGA!!!
It is important to understand and eliminate the cause of skin diseases. Poor diet, poor stimulation of the circulatory and excretory systems and subsequent build up of toxins are the root cause of skin eruptions. According to Yoga, the practice of Asanas, Breathing techniques as well as Internal Cleansing (Body Detoxification) techniques will serve to address skin issues. In other words, Yoga shows how to take charge of your own health issues (skin disorders included) without the need for any EXTERNAL aid. 
ASANAS PRANAYAMA & MEDITATION has detoxifying & anti-aging affect on the skin, as it works on the root problems of stress, toxins & hormonal imblances .. than just working on the symptoms as most of our modern costly skin remedies are.
Asanas like child's pose, cobra pose, fish pose, chest openers, forward bends, inversions increase oxygen and prana supply to the skin, stimulates, detoxifies and tones the skin thus cleansing toning and rejuvenation if the skin occurs!!!
Also Yogic breathing practices like kalpalbati and bhastrika, Alternate nostril breathing, sheetali and sheetakari has the same .. even in curing skin disesases like psoriasis, eczema...
Meditation is the ultimate de-stressor and antiaging has it is self healing and self rejuvenating.
What else do we need .. for our Healthy Glowing Skin!!
